[Year 12 IT Apps] Ultranet Trainers

[Timmer-Arends]

Re: [Year 12 IT Apps] Ultranet TrainersNot only are we in for training on an as yet implemented system, we will also be asked to have 'a teaching and learning goal foccused on the effective use of ICT' in our 2008 performance plans, and that will require forming 'a small professional learning team and complete an action learning project that explores aspects of effective teaching and learning and the successful integration of ICT'. I am quoting from 'A knowledge and Management Framework for Schools and their communities' (although it could be called 'Ultranet: change management strategy') Whatever it's called it part of a document given to me by our principal. We are in the throws of creating the necessary section in our Annual Implementation Plan to comply with this.

  Training for what?
  I was told yesterday that the contracts for the Ultranet 'program' will not be signed or ready until April of this year. That the trainers would not be receiving training until December 2008. The earliest that the Ultranet would be in the schools is June 2009. (This was from an Ultranet trainer.)

  Which raises  the question what will the 50 appointed Ultranet trainers be doing until then?

    So your school is mandated to pay for the Ultranet training?

    A quick Google of the SMR website and Ultranet only hit a brief mention in the 2006 annual report and not much else on the DEECD website. I guess, stay tuned...

      Does anyone have a list of Ultranet Trainers for the Southern Metropolitan Region?

      We are being told 4 staff must travel to Ringwood (from Bentleigh) and pay $150 each for a day of training???
